I’ve tried this in chocolate and vanilla. Both taste great, and I’ve experienced some gains while using them. The protein to calorie ratio is excellent and it’s very affordable. I removed one star for 2 reasons. First, this whey froths up like crazy when blending in my nutribullet. My other whey powders don’t behave like this. It’s annoying getting a stomach full of air and belching for the proceeding 30 minutes after consuming my recovery shake. Second, the sodium content isn’t great. I track everything I eat and was surprised to find my protein powder was one of the most significant contributors to my sodium intake when performing an analysis on my diet. There are alternatives that are sub 200mg per serving.

This stuff is great. It tastes good, the ingredient list is simple, it dissolves instantly, and it's much more affordable than other brands.While I haven't tried many other brands, I have tried a few, and this one is is the best, although I've only had the vanilla version, to keep it simple. The flavor is simple and mild, but doesn't have a weird artificial aftertaste that lingers like some brands do, which is a good thing to me.The biggest reason that I like it is that it doesn't upset my stomach like many other whey isolates, which is crucial because I have stomach problems (gastroparesis, sensitive stomach, etc.), and I need help maintaining/gaining weight.Even if the flavor is too boring for some people, the price alone is a sufficient reason to get it, in case you are picky.

I recently tried NutraCost protein powder, and I have to say, it's pretty impressive.First off, the price is right. It's not going to break the bank, which is always a plus when you're shopping for supplements.When it comes to mixing, this stuff is smooth sailing. No clumps or gritty texture, just a nice, even blend whether you're using a shaker bottle or a blender.As for digestion, I didn't have any issues. Some powders can upset my stomach, but NutraCost went down easy and didn't leave me feeling bloated.And the chocolate flavor was not bad at all. It's not like drinking a milkshake, but it's definitely enjoyable and doesn't have that artificial taste some other brands do.Overall, if you're in the market for a solid protein powder that won't cost you an arm and a leg, mixes well, goes down easy, and tastes decent, give NutraCost a shot.

OK, let me be honest about why I purchased protein powder. I donate plasma twice a week and keeping protein levels high enough so I qualify for that day's donation can be a bit tricky because I go at 6AM. I really don't want to get up and cook breakfast at 4:30AM so I decided to try a protein powder.To continue my honesty, I wanted Isolate powder because I was told it's the fastest digesting. And the Nutricost brand was less expensive and 3rd party tested so I chose it. Deciding on the flavor was difficult because I expected any flavor to taste phoney, be gritty, and not mix easily. Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! It mixes very easily using a chopstick, spoon, or a handheld immersion blender - less than 15 seconds! I ordered Mocha, and though it's more chocolate than coffee flavored, I like it a lot because it's not sickeningly sweet. I mixed1 scoop with 6oz. water and was unexpectedly pleased. Tomorrow I'll try it with milk and maybe mix it with yogurt another day.I am truly surprised at the quality and flavor. I certainly see why it has so many 5 star reviews.

Texture is great and mixes easier in a blender bottle than my last jug of Dymatize. Not a huge fan of the Mocha flavor. As others have mentioned it’s a little foamier than some other brands but wasn’t enough to bother me. Overall good and reasonably priced, I’ll try a different flavor next time.
